Smart 5G network at TV5
PLDT's wireless unit said it fired up Smart 5G at the TV5 Media Center in Mandaluyong as part of its goal to further explore the technology's use cases.
It said the broadcasting network can take advantage of mart 5G-certified devices for its reporters' live coverage and newsgathering activities.
With Smart 5G now up at the TV5 studios, we look forward to working more closely and co-innovating with TV5 to find out how we can further harness 5G together to modernize their news operations, said Alfredo S. Panlilio, Smart President and Chief Executive Officer and PLDT Chief Revenue Officer.
Only last month, the company made the 5G mobile network commercially available to select areas in Metro Manila: Makati Central Business District (CBD), Bonifacio Global City CBD, Araneta City, SM Megamall, and Mall of Asia Bay Area.
Smart noted the 5G is also being rolled out in key high-traffic areas such North Avenue in Quezon City and Taft Avenue in Manila, as well as in Ortigas CBD, and Clark Green City in Pampanga.
In order to experience the 5G network, Smart said they must use Smart-certified handsets with 5G-activated SIMs.
